Important Meeting of Gas and Electric
 Light Men.
 CHICAGO, April 12.-President Golf of the American Electric Manufacturing company of New York has been at the Grand Pacific Hotel here for 8 number of days in close consultation with several prominent gas men and it is understood that arrangements are in progress for strong western gas and electric light combination. Efforts to interview MT. Golf by the local papers have been unsue- cessful. He has absolutely refused to give any information regarding his business here. The Tribune published long article Sunday in which the statement was made that there is big deal going on between MT. Golf and the Chicago gas companies. It is more gen. orally believed that the arrangements are be- tween the American company and several different gas companies of this city. Western gas companies considering the adoption of electric lighting and it is generally admit ted that the representatives of the gas inter ests look upon the American system with more favor than that of any other company.

 and the Loss Above Half a Million.
 ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla, April 12.-The most disastrous and fatal fire that has oc- cured in this State swept away the build- ings on two blocks in the heart of this town
 this morning. So far two lives are reported lost and it may probably exceed that mum Der, as several persons are unaccounted for. At present it is impossible to estimate the loss owing to the great confusion into which the fire has thrown the city, but it is placed at from $4O0, ,0OO to $SO0,0O0. The fire orig tine Hotel just opposite the Plaza. It burned rapidly and soon spread to the surrounding property. It was 4:20 a. m. when the fire was discovered and in half an hour the hotel was nothing but a ruin. The first thing to be considered was to save life and all attention was paid to looking after those in the hotel. It is said that all were saved but one chambermaid and guest of the hotel whose names could not be learned. The fire is still burn ing, but is under control at this hour, 2:30 p. m. The losses are estimated as follows: St. Augustine Hotel burned to the ground, loss $100,000. The insurance policies expired
 yesterday and had not been renewed.
 The Cottage Bar completely destroyed; loss $4, ,000, insurance $1, 800. The Edwards House burned to the ground; loss s10,000, partially insured. The court house was burned to the ground, but the records were saved. Sully Wellers restaurant was gutted. Mrs. Cone's residence was burned. Hayon & Gonzales cigar store and the Chinese restaurant were burned. Chamberlaine 6 Sons wholesale and retail grocery establishment was burned; loss $1O, ,OOO, insured for $2, 2,000.

Druggist AIbrechIs Second Victim
 Bead. s4
 BOSTON, April 12.-The death of Edward Flanagan, the second victim of the Avery street gambling den tragedy, which occurred at a. m., was caused by blood poisoning. Until this disease set in there was every prospect of his recovery. Before his death Flanagan swore to the deposition he made a few days ago to Judge Curtis of the mu- nicipal court. Dr. Adolph A. Albrecht, who shot Lannahan and Flanagan, was arraigned to day, but in view of the unexpected death of his second victim the case was postponed for ten days Lawyers Charles F. Donne1ly and George Fred Williams counsel for Dr. Albrecht. When the latter was told of Flannagan's death he expressed more feeling than at any former time since his arrest. Though manifestly laboring under deep emo tion his only comment was: "It's too bad. I am sorry he died" The State has leased the premises where the shooting was done so as to prevent any alterations of the place during the trial of Albrecht.

Governor HiII Refuses to Sign the
 Crosby Bill.
 ALBANY, April Ex-Governor Hill vetoed the Crosby high license bill, which imposed license fee of $1, ,0OO on all saloon keepers in New York and Brooklyn. The Governor argues that such discrimination is viola tion of the constitutional provision for equal ity of taxation. Also that the clause confs- eating liquor found in unlicensed saloons without proof that it is on sale is unconsti- tutional violating the fundamental right to own property. He condemns the bill as 8 strictly party measure put through by the Republican caucus, and because it was forced upon New York and Brooklyn against the wishes of the representatives of those cities

THE IRISH GRIMES ACT.
Features of the Discussion in tl
 House of Commons.

Features of the Discussion in the House of Commons.
 LONDON, April 12.-In the House of Com mons this evening Mir. Hugh Holmes, attor- ney general of Ireland, resuming the debate on the Irish criminal bill amendment; assert ed that not one of the provisions of the bill would interfere with the constitutional rights Of the people of Ireland, nor infringe upon their public rights. Society in Ireland, it must be remembered, was wholly disorgan- ized. The people had become depraved in morals and appeared to sympathize with criminals, thwarting as they did every attempt on the part of the crown to obtain evidence against law breakers and when sworn to do their duty as jurymen refusing to convict when the evidence against the malefactor was plain and uncontradicted. It was for this reason, MT. Holmes said, that the clause pro viding for change of venue in certain cases was drafted, but he hoped that frequent re- course to the procedure authorized by this clause would not be found necessary. Con- corning summary Jurisdiction in minor cases As provided by the bill MT. Holmes contend ed that resident magistrates under that clause would be no more executive officers than justices of the peace in England were. The power of the Viceroy to suppress asso- citations and organizations dangerous to the peace or the operation of the law was subject to the veto of Parliament, but the govern ment adhered to it's proposal to make the act perpetual, although Parliament could repeal it whenever it might be necessary to do so.
 MT. Hugh c. E. Childers said he would admit that some of the provisions of the bill would not be altogeth- CT objectionable if applied to England and Ireland alike, but directed against Ireland alone they were unwarranted and would in- evitably work disorder. Against the clauses in which the bill gave certain powers to res ident magistrates who he knew were totally unfit to exercise he earnestly protested, as he also did against the proposal to try Irish prisoners in England, which he regarded as one of the worst features of the bill. As to the bill as whole, Mr. Childers ridiculed the measure unmercifully, calling especial at tention to the looseness of it's construction defects, he said, could not fail to render a number of it's clauses void and imperative.

A WOMAN's AWFUL EXPERIENCE. Carried OA in the Night by Two Young Men and Subjected to the Most Cruel


 P1TTsF1ELD, Mass., April 12.-Merrick Burbank aged thirty, son of Abraham Bur bank, proprietor of the famous Burbank Hotel, was bound over in s3, 1000 day on a charge of assault Mrs. Mary McGreldy, aged twenty-five, of New Lenox. William Marshall, another prominent young man, was held on similar charge. The case has created the greatest sensation of the year. Mrs. McGreldy says that she missed her train home last night and meeting Burbank at the station asked him to show her to house where she could get nights lodging. He took her in his buggy and drove to house two miles west on the shores of Onota lake. On the way fearing evil she resisted and was handcuffed and gagged. Near the house Mar shall joined them. At the house the woman was assaulted most brutally. She alleges that she struggled hard and fercely against her fate, but being handcuffed could do nothing to save herself; that the two men held her by force and poured whisky down her throat. She says Marshall made ad- vances toward her and she, havingbeen mean while handcufed, fought desperately and finally the two villains said if she would not submit they would blow her brains out. They started down stairs to get pistol and during their absence the woman, hastily put ing on her stockings, red underskirt and a merino waist, rushed from the house and up the steep hill toward the town. She reached l the top and knocked at the door of a house | owned by George Bualingame. He responded with his wife and the exhausted woman told l her story as best fhe could, but she alleges 1 that the Burl1ngames did not credit her sto- | ry and that Burbank appeared few mo ments later bearing the rest of hel clothing and profanely denouncing her fol leaving the house. She says that it was sug | gested by the Burlingame's that she go back | and at the very thought she rushed througt i! the hall, leaped from window and ran dowr the road toward town. She stopped at the l first house, which was occupied by Morris l Cavanagh. Here she tolp her story and ( messenger was sent for the police and phy- sician. The woman was taken to the police station and Dr. Woodruff prescribed for her He found her suffering terribly from the and threatened with con gestion of the lungs. To-day she gav
 every evidence of her torture during tn
 night, being scarcely able to speak. Sh
 may not be able to appear against her assail
 ant on Friday. Burbank says the wgman
 "an old beau'' of his and knew what the tril
 to the house was made for. He says the
 were both drunk and she became crazy anC
 rushed out as above told. Marshall denie
 having had anything to do with it, but tn
